Feb 25th, 2019: whale of a Tale

[Glinda]

Kunuunnguaq Davidsen performs a Greenland kayak (qajaq) roll in the 2018 Greenlandic National Championships in Nuuk. Traditional kayak rolling was done to recover from capsizing during kayak-hunting. It has since evolved into a national sport with 37 increasingly difficult rolls.

Thirty-seven different rolls? How is that even possible? Seems to me there's only one way to roll a kayak - from upside down to right side up. Unless they're doing it blindfolded, or with one arm tied behind their back, or nekkid . . . ??

Also, Kunuunnguaq Davidsen? How do you pronounce that? There's gotta be a story behind Davidsen, too. MOAR INFO!
